If I had to speculate I'd say there's no way they could realistically make a Ghostbusters remake or sequel that wouldn't be mediocre. The original cast are all too old, and anyone they cast instead would be compared to the original and deemed inferior. I suspect it'll be like the Robocop remake; not the worst of all time but not memorable. :shrug:

They already did a sequel with the original cast and it was mediocre, I don't know how anyone could possibly expect anything else from the franchise.

it would be one of those shots that's from robocops POV and you'd see a bunch of green numbers and poo poo scrolling by and suddenly it would stop and be like "MALE FETUS DETECTED - PURGE WOMB" and a little door between robocops legs would open up and shoot out a bunch of blood and mechanical parts

except when the female robocop has her emotional breakdown it just results in her sitting in her charging locker eating gallons of that nutritional paste instead of a badass violent rampage

I thought her "cruise ship injury" story scene in Bridesmaids was really funny.

Edit : this scene : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=747n6ypYbIQ

Identity Theft was very good and funny. All other ones I've seen her in were pretty bad though.

My biggest issue with Spy was that the tone wasn't consistent. Some parts were silly as hell and then you had a scene were a guy's throat dissolves from drinking acid and another where an assassin gets a knife through her hand.

this seems to have become a thing in the last few years where you have a mostly goofy comedy that out of nowhere hits you with some sort of gory scene that just feels really out of place. idgi

Bridesmaids was a pretty funny movie and I really enjoyed it when I saw it a long time ago.

I also had no idea that Slimer was a male. I always thought it was a genderless green blob ghost that eats a bunch. I knew it was intended to be the ghost of Belushi but I figured that wasn't canon or whatever. Apparently the new ghostbusters gives slimer a clone that has a wig and lipstick which means it's a woman.

Middling-rear end reviews count as "Fresh" so long as they're 50% and above. A cursory glance at the reviews reveals a lot of divided opinions and qualified recommendations. It's not just a Ghostbusters thing, it's a site-wide problem. If you really want to know whether you'll like it or not, ask your wife.

e: whoops I guess we have moved on.

Wow, the reviews on IMDB are really scathing and the movie has a 3.9 with 10k ratings now. And the median score on IMDB is a 1! Females on average scored it twice as high as males. In fact, females 18-29yo scored this movie higher than they did the original Ghostbusters!

Actually reading the reviews though, it's really hard to pick out who actually saw and is honestly reviewing the movie, vs. who is just using their review as a proxy in the gender war or whatever.

can't imagine why a 30-year old movie about 2 gay nerds doing gay nerd stuff and bill murray coercing sigourney weaver into dating/loving him while ghost happen would fail to resonate with today's YASS QUEEN generation.
